When asked about the elder's change in attitude, Andor was also puzzled, but he still answered based on what he had heard.
"It is said that his youngest son came up with the idea for him."
It's Desk. Shen Qingqing suddenly felt that if she couldn't talk to the elders, getting along with their descendants might be a good option.
"That makes things easier for us." Shen Qingqing chuckled. She had tried every possible method, but she never expected that the one who finally convinced the Grand Elder would be his youngest son.
Andor pondered for a moment, recalling what Desk had said during their previous conversation.
He said: "The Zerg's corrupt and outdated system should have been changed long ago. Andor, you don't still want to be a descendant of your thirteen clans, do you?"
Andorra certainly wouldn't let those nobles do whatever they wanted, so after dealing with the Deske's violation of the rules in piloting the aircraft, he began to work on changing the old system.
He spoke with Descartes last night and said he had a way to get his old-fashioned father to agree.
I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
“However, the real obstacles are still more numerous than we imagined.” Andorra’s ice-blue prosthetic eye emitted a faint blue light in the slightly dim environment, and his white hair was as white as snow.
His voice carried a unique, clear tone characteristic of a young insect, yet he himself acted with remarkable maturity and skill, displaying an air of precocious maturity beyond his years.
"I just wonder what method the Queen of Insects has to shut them up." He felt a chill run down his spine when he recalled the scene he had inadvertently glimpsed when he came to the temple tonight.
The Third Elder himself was unwilling to pressure the Insect Queen, so he sent the younger members of the noble clans to act as persuaders.
Meanwhile, the Third Elder, brimming with scheming thoughts, was secretly watching them from behind.
However, tonight's decision to come here for inspection was probably made on a whim, and I didn't expect those young insects to be so savvy, each of them racking their brains to escape as quickly as possible.
Instead, it put the Third Elder in an awkward position.
However, the Third Elder is, after all, a representative of the old aristocracy. Since he is willing to take action to force the Insect Queen to change the laws, he must have the strong support of other nobles behind him.
"The Third Elder has no heirs to persuade, and the noble forces behind him are complex and intertwined. I'm afraid it will be impossible to stop him with gentle means in the short term."
Andorra said this after rationally analyzing the pros and cons.
Surprisingly, Shen Qingqing did not show any difficulty. Instead, she praised her, saying, "This is the kind of awareness the old forces should have. You can't expect them to agree to change."
"However, dealing with the Third Elder is indeed not easy."
After thinking it over, I still feel that reform should not be rushed. It is best to proceed gradually and give them a chance to breathe.
He spoke again, "But what do you mean by 'we can't take gentle measures for the time being'? Does that mean there won't be any problems if we take drastic measures?"
Shen Qingqing trusted Andorra's words to a certain extent.
After all, he was a child raised by the Fourth Elder, a beast. Whether it was the influence he received from childhood or his awareness, he was far superior to the average Zerg.
"Of course, extraordinary measures can be taken in extraordinary times, which is not unusual for the Zerg."
Andor pointed out that the Queen has priority over all Zerg, especially in political and military matters, and no Zerg can change the Queen's orders.
"If you want, you can use your status as the Insect Queen to forcefully implement the new order."
"What about those old nobles?" She was more concerned that this move might cause unrest among the nobles.
Andor scoffed and coldly replied, "Nobles? They are nothing but pitiful creatures who submit to the protection of the insect queen. There is no need to care about their feelings."
"As long as the insect mother is happy, that's all that matters."
Upon hearing his remarks, Shen Qingqing immediately felt that reforming the Zerg's ideological education was also urgently needed.
We can't just follow the insect mother's orders in everything.
Concentrating power in one person can easily lead to misjudgments, since no thinking species can resist emotions.
Especially when emotions take over, reason often proves ineffective.
“At the very least, we need a cabinet-like body as a think tank,” Shen Qingqing muttered softly. “We can’t let individuals make all the decisions.”
"What did you say?" Andor seemed to hear her muttering something, but because they were still some distance apart, he couldn't hear it clearly.
"It's nothing, just speculation about the implementation of the new decree in the future," Shen Qingqing replied with a smile.
"By the way, Andorra, I haven't seen Saenster lately. Where is he?"
After talking with Andor all night, I suddenly realized that I had forgotten the most important role.
At this moment, Saenster, who was serving as the commander-in-chief of the military in some unknown corner, glanced down at the terminal on his wrist and sighed.
His Qingqing eventually forgot him.
But it doesn't matter, he has already sent his most trusted confidants to keep an eye on those potential rivals.
……
Desk, who can scale walls and rooftops with just a rope, says that his ingenuity can finally... see the light of day again!
Sure enough, there are some insectoids with eyes among the Zerg.
The rope tied around his waist was like an ornament, hanging lightly at his waist. The rope, which was less than a finger's width thick, was not enough to support his weight, so Desk simply draped the rope around his neck and climbed up the temple wall with his bare hands.
"It's a bit slippery." Desk rubbed his palms, barely managing to support himself as he slowly climbed up.
"If Saenster hadn't promised to return the aircraft to me and give me a share of his credit, I wouldn't have bothered to eavesdrop."
Noticing the slippery antique porcelain surface under his feet, Desk carefully moved to the window outside Shen Qingqing's bedroom.
Stepping onto the relief, I found a foothold, but this simple movement was far from meeting the requirements of the main character.
[Go inside and place the listening device indoors.]
A small red dot lit up on the terminal. Desk glanced at it, scoffed dismissively, but still obediently replied with a message:
【knew】
He had originally intended to add a "Stop talking nonsense" at the end, but just as he was about to send the message, his usually quick-witted brain stopped him and told him:
If you want to get back alive, it's best not to do this.
Moreover, it's possible that not only will you lose your credit score, but you might also lose face.
With his fingers working in sync with his brain, Desk replied with a trustworthy three-word phrase: "Understood."
So, as if he were visiting his own home, he took out a laser from his pocket, silently cut a perfect circle in the glass, ignored the Zerg still waiting for the Zerg Queen below, and walked straight in through the window.
The young insect, who was still praying that the Third Elder would not return and cursing him to be a bachelor for life, was dozing off when a snap startled the drowsy insects awake.
On the pristine white floor, a round piece of glass lay shattered into pieces, lying quietly on the white marble surface bathed in moonlight.
